Are they TTY or can I re-use them?

Thanks

Reusable, consult the service manual for the required torque value and flywheel installation procedure, it's important on a C5.

The service manual does not state that they need to be replaced so they can be re-used. Personally I always buy new bolts for jobs like this as it's cheap insurance but many on this forum re-use them.

Try running a search on this in the tech section...

New ones are CHEAP. Why wonder? I've reused them and always without incident though. They are definitely not TTY

Don't even take the chance by reusing the old ones.

Go ARP, buy once, cry once.

Being a mechanic and i reused most 9/10 times ofcourse on different cars/trucks, however i would buy new ones for us, knowing how much work involved to get there.

You can buy ARP i had to grind some but i heard people have used Auto flex plate ARP in our manual Flywheel, never used though.

GM stock should be fine, i usually torque 5-10 lbs more what they say.
